SINGAPORE, October 22, 2018 – Singapore-made platform Tickle launches an app that lets you book original experiences hosted by everyday people. Local lifestyle recreation options are no longer limited to brunch, Netflix-bingeing or window-shopping.

Now, Singaporeans and expats can try something new everyday; an eco-walk with a nature geek, a commando boot camp, learning about Peranakan culture, whipping up Moroccan dishes, or even discovering how to be a vandal by SKL0, resident mischief-maker – all based in Singapore.

Tickle experiences are original, social, and curated for quality. Conceptualised and run by hosts – everyday people sharing their individual talents and passions – uncommon experiences are now being shared, opening up new cultures and activities you would never have imagined. More personal than typical seminar-style classes run by businesses, Tickle experiences are hosted in cosy groups of 2-20 people. Set in informal spaces like hosts’ homes or a park, guests are guided to try something new in a casual, inviting environment, while socialising with other guests. Experiences last 1-3 hours, with tickets averaging between $20-$80 per guest (premium ones go up to $300).

To join, simply download Tickle Experiences app on your phone and book a date. As a launch special, use coupon LAUNCH10 for $10 off bookings over $50, or LAUNCH4 for $4 off bookings over $20.

Says CEO and Co-Founder, Krystal Choo, “We’re amazed to have over 24,000 people on our waiting list. With 3 in 4 millennials spending on experiences over things, people are so hungry to try something new, but they aren’t well-served. Tickle reimagines the sharing economy, bringing together hidden local talents and meaningful activities so hosts can earn a living doing what they love, and guests can sample a buffet of new ways to spend their time. There’s a lot of unexplored potential for hosts and guests here.”

The Tickle team helps hosts refine their experience. Each experience is infused with the hosts’ backgrounds and personalities, making it unique and immersive. Standing at over 100 experiences now, Tickle is growing rapidly, adding more curated, original experiences every week, with a focus on affordable experiences that are comparable to the cost of a movie with snacks or a night out with friends. Anyone can apply to be a Tickle host – an enjoyable way to earn a living doing what you love.
